corrected several small typos
corrected a typo around the 'line of business' line; as well as the sentence on /open, /developer, and /data pages; tightened a sentence about the /data page and data.gov; for the 'how do i get started' question, I clarified data.json instead of /data; and for the last question, I did the same.

Yes, if your data management process includes rich metadata specific to the mission of your agency or the Line of Business your agency participates, publishing additional metadata that makes your data more useful to the public is welcomed and encouraged. Note that Data.gov will be harvesting only the metadata in this published schema unless specific arrangements are in place (e.g. geospatial FGDC/ISO).

A wide variety of tools are available to manage a data catalog, whether public-facing or for internal data managements. The records of metadata in the file can be managed by databases, spreadsheets, or even text editors. Data management systems should be able to export the metadata either in the desired format or in one which may be simply mapped with [tools](http://labs.data.gov).
